Hearing about this reboot of the CGI cartoon in the 1990’s, Reboot. I was excited and hoped it would pick up a bit later after the show ended. Since the original show ended on a cliffhanger that didn’t get a resolution. Instead, we get a Power Rangers rip off show where out the main villain is some dirty hacker called The Sorcerer and he’s pretty typical in this show.

Binged the first season on Netflix and it just seemed okay and the last episode I was a bit excited, but also a bit insulted. Hope this next season, if they make one, gets better and more fleshed out. Though some people on YouTube say it’s getting worse but I’ll give it a watch myself before I think that.

First watching this movie I had mixed feelings since it seemed like these Star Trek 2009 reboot movies at times didn’t feel like Star Trek movies. More like action movies and that’s not what Star Trek is about, it’s about diplomacy. There ARE a lot of homages to the original Star Trek in this movie though.

The movie starts off 3 years into the 5 year mission with Kirk thinking about leaving the Enterprise. Spock is also thinking of leaving as well as something happens to someone close to him. Then a damaged ship seeks help from the Enterprise and we later see our enemy Thrall, played by Idris Elba. Who want’s to destroy this space station in the frontier.

I won’t spoil his origin but it woke me up and made me want to watch the ending. The middle and ending of this movie also feels a bit like an homage to Star Trek: Enterprise and you don’t get many mentions about that show in Star Trek.

In the end the movie was trying to make it feel like a Star Trek movie and it kinda did that at least for the ending. If your still a fan of Star Trek and their movies then give this a watch.

I saw this on Amazon Prime Video a couple months ago. I was surprised that it also is an exclusive to Amazon Video too. It doesn’t have the puppets like in the original Thunderbirds but CGI and maybe some miniatures as sets for wide angle shots. It starts with International Rescue and the Tracey’s trying to stop the Hood, the main villain of the show.

The scenes where the rockets take off are also amazing and almost like watching a real rocket take off. Also the guy with the glasses is called Brains and he’s Indian now for some reason. He even tags along for a bit too in some episodes as well.

I love the retro future this show takes place in, and it makes it feel almost like the original Thunderbirds at times. You should take a look when you can and have an Amazon Prime Video account. It’s perfect for kids and it isn’t too violent for little kids too so give it a watch when you can.

Watching this I was excited after the 2009 reboot and that Benedict Cumberbatch was in this since he was so good in Sherlock. He’s good in this too as well as all the other enterprise crew make an appearance. There’s also this random scene of some girl in her underwear as just a way to have sex appeal, maybe. As this movie went on though around the middle it felt like a remake of Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan.
There’s going to be another movie I think this year called Star Trek: Beyond maybe involving the five year mission and maybe the Dominion. There is a graphic novel series of how this five year mission and how it goes in the reboot timeline. There’s also some trailers for it and some Star Trek fans think it might involve the Dominion since one alien looks like a Jem’hadar. If you don’t know what that is check Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and it explains the Dominion and the Jem’hadar. Even though I heard they won’t recycle any Star Trek villains in Star Trek: Beyond. Overall this movie is okay and still feels like a retread of The Wrath of Khan and J.J. Abrams is still pretty good director. Watch it if your still a Star Trek fan or a Benedict Cumberbatch fan too.

Playing this game was amazing and I only have one word for it, intense. There’s also a lot of context sensitive moments and if you mess up you can restart the scene. You also find artifacts and search some of them for other information about them. There’s even these optional tombs you can look around at and when your done with it you’ll unlock all the hidden stuff.
You also can search stuff and animals for salvage to modify your weapons. There’s even these camps where you can fast travel and add a skill for three of these skill trees to help you. The multi-player in this I heard is a joke and like it’s slapped on at the last minute. Still I’ll have to try it out one day and it’s also free on Xbox Live recently so give it a chance when you can.

First seeing this I thought it would just be a retread of Kirk and Spock growing up. Then about halfway thought the movie it really starts to change and really becomes a reboot. Overall J.J. Abrams did a good job with this Stark Trek movie and Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto as Kirk and Spock are good.

Some people attacked this for having a lot of it borrowed from Star Wars. Like the bar scene and the ice planet but it’s pretty good on it’s own. The cast does a pretty good job as the original Star Trek crew. A The twist and the middle is pretty good for Star Trek and people who watched the other Star Trek movies will go “That didn’t happen!”.

Even though they try to explain it and not ruin the original shows. This way J.J. Abrams can do his own thing with Star Trek without destroying the timeline and the other Star Trek shows people loved. I’m trying not to divulge too much because it’s that good of a movie and I hope people get a chance to see it. This is pretty good for a movie and reboot and the sequel I’ll do some other day as well.

Last week I went to see Godzilla with some of my friends and it was okay but better than that 1998 Godzilla. I heard that TOHO had to rename that monster Zilla and Zilla gets killed easily in Godzilla: Final Wars in 2004. The sense with Brain Craston were good but there not much of him in it. There’s some other monsters too besides Godzilla and they’re pretty good too. Godzilla in this movie I heard looked bloated and that his roar almost sounded like an explosion. He also has his nuclear breath where he breathes this blue fire and that’s fire at it’s hottest.

The human element was kinda boring and bland and the only good parts are when there was Godzilla in it. I still think it’s better than that 1998 one I can tell you that. In the end it’s a nice reboot to a classic monster so give it a watch when you can.
